In one group that I am part of, we had a reviewer use AI on submissions, this scared the larger org and we now have a policy of no-AI reviews - however I think AI is closer to competently reviewing some elements of papers than it is editing them itself. For example, it’s the best spelling / grammar tool I’ve ever seen. Since many submissions are by non native English speakers, a limited AI review comment would make sense to me.

Overall, because of the happy to serve alignment of commercial AI it’s more likely to praise us than be critical, which would mean that OTS models may not fit in to the reviews of methods and conclusions.
